The S32K3 RTD 2.0.0 lacks SIUL2 external interrupt function. Siul2_Icu is part of Icu(Input Capture Unit), the main function of the example should have been: use the Icu and Dio drivers to toggle a LED on a push button. But it doesn't. So this document will show the step-by-step process to add 'SIUL2 external interrupt' function in Siul2_Port_Ip_Example_S32K344 using the S32K3xx RTD LLD(Low Level Driver) and the S32 Configuration Tools. This example is for the S32K3X4EVB-Q257, connected to a PC through USB (OpenSDA) connection. Preparation Setup the software tools Install S32 Design Studio for S32 Platform Install the S32K1xx development package and the S32K1 RTD AUTOSAR 4.4. Both of these are required for the S32 Configuration Tools. Launch S32 Design Studio for S32 Platform Procedure 1. Import Siul2_Port_Ip_Example_S32K344 example File->New->S32DS Project from Example It can be seen that in the Icu (Input Capture Unit Driver) folder of S32K3 RTD 2.0.0, there are only interrupt routines implemented by the Emios module for the time being, and external interrupt routines for the EIRQ pin of the Siul2 module does not exist. Here we import the Siul2_Port_Ip_Example_S32K344 routine, and add the Siul2_Icu part on this basis.   2. Add push button and LED in Pins tool Add the pins for user buttons (SW4 PTB26 SIUL2 eirq13) according to the S32K3X4EVB-Q257.   3. Add IntCtrl_Ip component Go to Peripherals tool. Here we can see that the ‘Siul2_Dio’ and ‘Siul2_Port’ components are already added. From the Components view, click on ‘Add a new configuration component…’ button from the Drivers category. This will bring up a list of non-AUTOSAR components. Locate and then select the ‘IntCtrl_Ip’ component from the list and click OK. Option 1: Keep the default setting after add ‘IntCtrl_Ip’ component(Here we didn't change the settings of ‘IntCtrl_Ip’, nor use IntCtrl_Ip_Init and IntCtrl_Ip_ConfigIrqRouting API to enable interrupts and install handlers in IntCtrl_Ip).This routine only uses one interrupt, so we will call IntCtrl_Ip_InstallHandler and IntCtrl_Ip_EnableIrq those two APIs to install and enable the SIUL2 EIRQ13 IRQ separately. Option 2: User can enable many interrupts in the Interrupt Controller configuration(Note user can only add one interrupt controller configuration in the RTD); Meanwhile, it can set interrupt’s priority separately. The two APIs IntCtrl_Ip_Init and IntCtrl_Ip_ConfigIrqRouting can initialize these interrupts as a whole. The name of the Handler in the Generic Interrupt Settings tab needs to be the same as the name in peripheral_Ip_Irq.c of the corresponding peripheral. For example, this routine uses the PTB26 SIUL2 EIRQ13 external interrupt, which can be found in RTD/src/Siul2_Icu_Ip_Irq.c: ISR(SIUL2_EXT_IRQ_8_15_ISR) According to the "Table 35" of S32K3XXRM reference manual, we can see the SIUL2 EIRQ13(PTB26) external interrupt used in this routine belongs to SIUL_1_IRQn and the Handler name SIUL2_EXT_IRQ_8_15_ISR.   4. Add Siul2_Icu component Click on ‘Add a new configuration component…’ button from the Drivers category. Locate and then select the ‘Siul2_Icu’ component from the list and click OK. Step 5 select SIUL2_0_IRQ_CH_13 because this routine selects the onboard SW4 PTB26 SIUL2 EIRQ13 external interrupt (the onboard SW5 PTB19 pin has no EIRQ external interrupt function, so I did not added here). Step 6 set DIRER0[EIREn] to enable this external interrupt pin. Step 8 set the IFCPR[IFCP] filter clock prescaler. Step 10 input 13 for the Hardware channel due to we use SIUL2 EIRQ13. Step 11 set IFER0[IFEn] to enable the glitch filter for the external interrupt pin. Step 12 set IFMCRn[MAXCNT] to assign value to the external interrupt filter counter. Step 14 select the IcuSiu2Channel_0 channel configured in the IcuSiul2 tab above. Step 15 select the ICU_RISING_EDGE according to the SW4 button circuit (press to generate a rising edge). Step 16 Because the SIUL2 EIRQ external interrupt is used in this routine, ICU_MODE_SIGNAL_EDGE_DETECT mode must be selected. Step 17 add the corresponding callback function name. That is, it corresponds to the notification after the SIUL2 EIRQ external interrupt pin captures the rising edge (the interrupt flag does not need to be cleared here, the driver has already been implemented it).   5. Include the headers for the drivers used in the application #include "Siul2_Icu_Ip.h" #include "IntCtrl_Ip.h"   6. Add Siul2_Icu LLD APIs Siul2_Icu_Ip_Init is used to initialize all Siul2_Icu channels generated by the S32 Configuration Tools (this routine only configures the channel SW4 PTB26 SIUL2 EIRQ13). Siul2_Icu_Ip_EnableInterrupt enable Siul2 IRQ interrupt for the specified channels. Siul2_Icu_Ip_EnableNotification enable callback function of Siul2 IRQ interrupt for the specified channels. This routine uses the SW4 button to trigger the PTB26 SIUL2 EIRQ13 external interrupt callback function SW4_eirq13_PTB26_Callback to flip the PTB18 D33 red LED.   7. Add IntCtrl LLD APIs IntCtrl_Ip_InstallHandler installs the SIUL2_EXT_IRQ_8_15_ISR interrupt handler generated by the S32 Configuration Tools. IntCtrl_Ip_EnableIrq enables the corresponding interrupt. Why input SIUL_1_IRQn and SIUL2_EXT_IRQ_8_15_ISR has been explained at the end of "4. Adding the IntCtrl_Ip component" above.

Function printf is C library function, which sends formatted output to stdout. Because microcontroller does not contain stdout, it it necessary to redirect it to a different type of output. One of the possible way is using UART. All MPC57xx has LinFlexD module, which supports UART mode.   For proper use the LinFlexD module, it is necessary to initialize it and also create simple functions for transmit and receive data. You can create your own file or use the file uart.c in the attachment. If you want to create your own file, please do not forget to implement the methods, which are called by MW MSL libraries to perform console IO (please look at the attached file uart.c).   In uart.h file, you will find correct function prototypes for functions used in uart.c and also some important enum data types.   Third important file is uart_console_io.c which you find in folder, where S32DS was installed. Open the folder and choose path: S32DS/e200_ewl2/EWL_C/src/sys. This file contains routines which implement low-level console IO routines.   Now, we have all basic files which help us to use printf function. So lets create new project and test printf. Example project is created for MPC5744P.   Create new project, choose EWL library and finish project wizard. Include stdio.h to the file, where you want to call printf function.   Now add uart.c and uart_console_io.c files to the project folder src. Add uart.h file to project folder include.   Initialize system clock and clock for peripherals (look at the attached project). In uart.c file, there are settings for GPIO pins, LinFlex initialization for UART mode and also baud rate calculation (please look at the uart.c file in the attachment).   Now it is possible to use printf function. Important point is, that \n character triggers the data sending. Also, if you do not use this \n character, you will get compile error, but I will explain this further in this tutorial.   Run some terminal emulation, for example Putty and use the following settings:   Now open terminal and  run the code in the microcontroller. This should be the result:   /*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************/ /*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************/ /*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************/   This was the easiest way, how to use printf function. But printf also provides some format characters for printing decimals, floating points, etc. All options you can find in ewl_c_reference.pdf document which is place in S32DS installation folder S32DS/help/pdf.   When you want to use some of the characters mentioned above, you get the following compile error:   When you do not use any format characters in printf argument, function _EWL_CDECL puts(const char_t * s) from puts.c file is called on background. But when you use format characters in printf argument, function int_t _EWL_CDECL printf(const char_t * _EWL_RESTRICT format, ...) from printf.c file is called instead of puts.   Variable result saves value, which function __pformatter returns. But function __pformatter is not implemented. Instead of __pformatter, function __pformatterFP (placed in __printformat.c file) is implemented.   So there are two possible workarounds.   First workaround is place the following code to the Linker flags in project properties: -Xlinker --undefined=__pformatterFP -Xlinker --defsym=__pformatter=__pformatterFP   The code says that there is undefined symbol __pformatterFP (part -Xlinker --undefined=__pformatterFP) and define symbol alias __pformatter=__pformatterFP (-Xlinker --defsym=__pformatter=__pformatterFP ). So from my point of view, symbol __pformatter is replaced by __pformatterFP. Now the correct function is called and the project could be successfully built.     Second workaround is add the printf.c file from S32DS installation folder S32DS/e200_ewl2/EWL_C/src/stdio to the project src folder and exchange __pformatter for __pformaterFP. Clean project and recompile.       I hope this document helps you while implementing printf function in your projects.   Regards, Martin

  In some cases FreeRTOS heap can consume huge portion of RAM memory - especially on small devices like S32K312 and for example DTCM memory is unused. FreeRTOS allows user defined heap which can be moved in any section in RAM.  First step - make sure, that in FreeRTOS config is application allocated heap is disabled:   Second step - open linker script file and create new section which points into DTCM memory:     Third step - define ucHeap variable with section attribute:     We are done - FreeRTOS Heap is moved into DTCM memory:    In case, that DTCM memory is used - typically there can be Interrupt Vector Table, stack and so on, you can skip creating new section in linker script file and simply add *(my_head) at the end of existing section mapped into dtcm:    FreeRTOS heap will be placet at the end of used DTCM memory:

This document shows the step-by-step process to create a simple blinking LED application for the S32R45 family using the S32 RTD AUTOSAR drivers. This example used for the S32R45 EVB, connected via ethernet connection through S32 Debugger. Preparation Setup the software tools Install S32 Design Studio for S32 Platform Install the S32R45 development package and the S32R45 RTD AUTOSAR 4.4. Both of these are required for the S32 Configuration Tools. Launch S32 Design Studio for S32 Platform Procedure New S32DS Project OR Provide a name for the project, for example 'Blinking_LED_RTD_With_AUTOSAR'. The name must be entered with no space characters. Expand Family S32R45, Select S32R45 Cortex-M7 Click Next Click '…' button next to SDKs   Check box next to PlatformSDK_S32RXX_4_0_0_S32R45_M7_0. (or whichever latest SDK for the S32R45 is installed). Click OK And also, uncheck the other cores Cortex_M7_1 ,  Cortex_M7_2.   Click Finish. Wait for project generation wizard to complete, then expand the project within the Project Explorer view to show the contents. To control the LED on the board, some configuration needs to be performed within the Pins Tool. There are several ways to do this. One simple way by double-click on the MEX file. Select the overview tab and disable Pins tool. Make sure to overview tab windows shows settings shown as below.  Here, we are disabling pin tools and using MCAL driver from peripheral tools for using AUTOSAR drivers. Now from Overview menu, select peripheral tools and double click to open it. In the driver sections, “Siul2_Port_1 driver” is the non-AUTOSAR version driver and so it must be replaced. Right click on ‘Siul2_Port_1’ and remove it. Keep osif_1 driver as it is. Click on the ‘+’ next to the MCAL box. Click on the ‘+’ next to the MCAL box again, and Locate and then select the ‘Dio’ component from the list and click OK. Click on the ‘+’ next to the MCAL box again, and Locate and then select the ‘Mcu’ component from the list and click OK. Click on the ‘+’ next to the MCAL box again, and Locate and then select the ‘Port’ component from the list and click OK. Now components tab should show like below : Now we required to configure the different MCAL drivers that we added. Starting with Dio configuration, open the Dio configuration. Now, open the ‘DioConfig’ tab, and Edit Dio Port id to 3 as shown below: Now, in “Dio Configuration” window only, Select  “+” sign adjacent to DioChannel. Then Edit Name to “Digital_Output_LED” and Dio Channel Id to ‘5’ instead of ‘0’. From the schematic for S32GR45 EVB, checking for user LED from the schematic, channel 5 is connected to user LED signal, so we use channel 5 signal line to the chip for the user LED. So, we select the singal line for Dio channel Id 5 for the user LED connected on the S32R45 EVB. Now Select Port tab for Port configuration. And open the Port Configuration tab, and from that open “PortConfigSet” tab. Change the PortPin Mscr to ‘53’ and slew rate to ‘SRE_208MHZ_1_8V_166MHZ_3_3V’ and, PortPin Direction to PORT_PIN_INOUT as shown below: Now, at the bottom you will find the “UnTouchedPortPin ’’ . Click on “+’’ and add PortPins. Now add port pins 0, 1, 2, 3 as per below configuration Now configure MCU component. Select Mcu component in MCAL, and then open the Mcu configuration. In Mcu configuration click on MCUModuleConfiguration and then select “McuModesettingConf” from the dropdown menu as shown below. From McuModeSettingConf, select McuPartitionConfiguration tab. Then open the “McuPartition0Config” tab. And under the McuCore0Configuration or “McuCoreClockEnable” select checkbox and for “McuCoreResetEnable” uncheck the checkbox. Similarly, And under the McuCore1Configuration for “McuCoreClockEnable” select checkbox  and for “McuCoreResetEnable” uncheck the checkbox. Similarly, And under the McuCore2Configuration for “McuCoreClockEnable” select checkbox and for “McuCoreResetEnable” uncheck  the checkbox. After modification it should be as shown below: Now open the “McuPartition1Config” tab. for " Partition1 Clock Enable" select checkmark to true and for " Partition1 Clock Reset Enable" uncheck the checkmark for " CA53 CORE 0 cluster0 Core Clock Enable" select checkmark to true and for " Cortex-A53 Core 0 cluster 0 Clock Reset Enable" uncheck  the checkmark In the McuCore1Configuration, and for " Cortex-A53 Core 1 cluster 0 Clock Reset Enable" uncheck the checkmark In the McuCore2Configuration, for " Cortex-A53 CORE 0 cluster 1 Core Clock Enable" select checkmark to true and for " Cortex-A53 CORE 0 cluster 1 Clock Reset Enable" uncheck the checkmark In the McuCore3Configuration, for " Cortex-A53 CORE 0 cluster 1 Clock Reset Enable" uncheck the checkmark After modification it should be as shown below: Now open the “McuPartition2Config” tab. for " Partition2 Clock Enable" select checkmark to true and for " Partition2 Clock Reset Enable" uncheck the checkmark Now open the “McuPartition3Config” tab. for " Partition3 Clock Enable" select checkmark to true and for " Partition3 Clock Reset Enable" uncheck the checkmark Now the device configurations are complete and the RTD configuration code can be generated. Click ‘Update Code’ from the menu bar. To control the output pin which was just configured, some application code will need to be written. Return to the ‘C/C++’ perspective. If not already open, in the project window click the ‘>’ next to the ‘src’ folder to show the contents, then double click ‘main.c’ file to open it. This is where the application code will be added. Before anything else is done, Initialize the clock tree and apply PLL as system clock, Apply a mode configuration, Initialize all pins using the Port driver by adding – editing code before write code here comment in main function.        /* Initialize the Mcu driver */        Mcu_Init(&Mcu_Config_BOARD_InitPeripherals);        /* Initialize the clock tree and apply PLL as system clock */        Mcu_InitClock(McuClockSettingConfig_0);        /* Apply a mode configuration */        Mcu_SetMode(McuModeSettingConf_0);        /* Initialize all pins using the Port driver */        Port_Init(NULL_PTR); Now replace the logic of for loop as shown below code section in the main function, which will enable the LED blinking for 10 times: You also need to declare and initialize the loop variable uint8 i = 0U; . Then replace the code as below after write your code comment: /*Logic for blinking LED 10 times*/ while (i++ < 10) {           /* Get input level of channels */           Dio_WriteChannel(DioConf_DioChannel_Digital_Output_LED, STD_HIGH);           TestDelay(3000000);           Dio_WriteChannel(DioConf_DioChannel_Digital_Output_LED, STD_LOW);           TestDelay(3000000); } Before the 'main' function, add a delay function as follows: void TestDelay(uint32 delay); void TestDelay(uint32 delay) {      static volatile uint32 DelayTimer = 0;      while(DelayTimer<delay)      {             DelayTimer++;      }      DelayTimer=0; } Update the includes lines at the top of the main.c file to include the headers for the drivers used in the application: Add #include "Mcu.h" #include "Port.h" #include "Dio.h" Build 'Blinking_LED_RTD_AUTOSAR'. Select the project name in 'C/C++ Projects' view and then press 'Build'. After the build completes, check that there are no errors. Open Debug Configurations and select 'Blinking_LED_RTD_with_AUTOSAR_Debug_RAM'. Make sure to select the configuration which matches the build type performed, otherwise it may report an error if the build output doesn’t exist. And make selection as shown in screenshot below. You need to select the ethernet connection for S32 debugger and provide its IP address Click Debug To see the LED blink, click ‘Resume' This code as it will blink the LED 10 times, you can make changes in for loop condition to blink it infinitely.

Condition:  I am trying FreeRTOS using S32K118 EVB and run in DEBUG mode. When I set the break point in vTaskDelay and press Resume for the first time, there is a smooth stop at the break point. The second time I press Resume, the debugger should enter the same break point again, but there is no response. Then I press Suspend and can't press Resume again, at this point I can only leave. However, I am free to run this project with no problem, what's wrong? Analysis: This is due to an access of DDR memory region which is not initialized by default project settings. Solution: To resolve it, a macro initializing the DDR memory should be selected to run at the beginning of a debug session. A user should go to Advanced Options dialog and check "Enable initialization script". Our DDR init macros can be found at the following location within S32DS3.2 layout: eclipse\plugins\com.pemicro.debug.gdbjtag.pne_4.2.8.201909091700\win32\gdi\P&E\supportFiles_ARM\NXP\S32Vxxx\S32V234M100_DDR3_EVB29288.mac. Please note that the type of the macro might depend on the revision of the board and S32V23x device one is working with. I am also attaching a picture of debug configuration and Advanced Options dialog with all the settings in place.
